There is a wonderful local site that I often order things off of called Faithful to Nature who sell authentically natural and organic products that have been personally checked by them, so that you know without a shadow of a doubt that every single thing from their wide offering has been checked to make sure that it really is as green and as safe as its manufacturers claim it is!
Faithful To Nature sells all sorts of awesome products and one of the things that I love the most about them is that most of their goods are locally made as they always try to support local where they can! Their products are cruelty-free and they do not sell anything that they suspect or are aware contain GMO ingredients. So whether you are looking for citrus scented organic dishwashing liquid; organic pumpkin seeds; an organic anti-cellulite cream; vegan nail polish or gluten free flour, you’ll be sure to find it here. They also sell homeware, things for your pets, gifts and the list goes on.
Faithful To Nature asked me if I’d share my Winter skin routine with them and seeing as they stock one of my favourite local skin care products, Skoon I jumped onboard. They have also given me a R500 voucher to give to one of you guys, in case you see something on their site that you fancy (competition details are below).
My skin, in general, is pretty normal, but come Winter time it does become slightly drier and in need of a bit more love and nourishment and Skoon offer a variety of products that do just that. I bought four different things from them and I’m not going to lie I’m loving every single one. Their products are always made up of amazing textures and smells and it doesn’t hurt that they come in some pretty awesome packaging!
Have any of you used Skoon before?
Something I tried for the first time was their Ruby Marine Overnight Hydrating Mask made from a rich blend of organic coconut oil and wildflower honey which soothes and hydrates your skin while you sleep. I’ve tried it out a couple of times since ordering it and my face loves it as much as I do and I can honestly feel a difference come morning time.
I also for the first time ever tried their Beautifuel Double Thick Cream Moisturiser. Its name pretty much sums it up to a T. It’s rich and indulgent and I’m not going to lie, every now and then I think about eating it!
The other two products I ordered which my skin is no stranger to, is their Glow Drops Concentrate which is their best seller and for good reason, it adds an instant soft luminosity to your skin and makes it feel super soft. This stuff is amazing, so give it a try if you haven’t already, it’s a real treat for your skin. I also bought a new stash of Whitewash Purifying Clay Cleanser, this product uses the principle of soap-free cleansing so the natural science behind this mineral mousse is that it keeps blemishes at bay by scooping debris from your pores while leaving vital oils intact. This cleanser is one of the best ones I’ve ever used, I’ve actually struggled to find one that I really like, but I like this one and that’s why it forms part of my regular skin routine.
Faithful To Nature has quite a few of my favourite local products on it, like Lula and Marula, Kuro-Bo, Pure Beginnings and Oh Lief, just to name a few and what’s great is that they are all in one place and I can pick and choose and have them delivered straight to my house in one go.
What are some of your Winter skin routines? I’d love to hear about them. I’d also like to hook one lucky reader up with a R500 Faithful To Nature voucher that you can spend on some goodies for yourself.

I have heard so many amazing things about Skoon. I would love to try it out.

Hello 🙂
Hi Angie, thanks for this post! You have just convinced me to try SKOON. I was given a bunch of their samples to try for my breakout prone, sensitive skin and I must say I loved the White cloud manuka concentrate. I definitely want to try out the Ruby Marine and the Beautifuel as well. 🙂

A delightful giveaway
Love your blog
Always interesting and informative
Lots of love and blessings
Hi ? faithful to Nature is such a bonus to all of us who love natural animal safe products
I’m always looking for natural skincare options. This looks lovely ?
I do not have much of a skin routine. I wash with whatever is in the shower (at the moment there is a charcoal soap bar which is a bit harsh on my face) and slap on what is left in a million little pots of natural creams that are not completely bowling me over. BUT I do use Argan oil on my face after a shower as I have incredibly dry skin – I love Argan and I buy it from Faithful to Nature. SKOON looks like a wicked product! Especially as I’m almost 40 and need all the hydration and self-care I can get haha That Ruby Marine Overnight Hydrating Mask looks like just the thing to get me glowing again.
Hi
Thank you for the opportunity to win this voucher, always look forward to your super awesome blog.
Hi <3

Hi ??!! Love it
Hi!! ?
I’ve always been tempted to try SKOON products, especially the Glow Drops Concentrate. Heard it’s amazing!!
Hi and hi again.
A good hydrating mask and rich moisturiser is essential for me in winter. I would love to try Skoon’s Ruby Marine Overnight Hydrating Mask! I have only heard good things about this lovely local product. And of course their Glowdrops too, as an extra little treat!
Yay! Hi! 🙂
Hello!
Hi there
I have not yet used any of the Skoon product range, but have been looking into it as of late. I have slowly changed all my products in my home to be earth friendly, animal friendly and non toxic thanks to the wonderful products offered on the faitful to nature website. My mother has recently passed away from breast cancer and there are so many things you can change in your daily routine and things you can add to your lifestyle to prevent cancer from affecting your life. Not only this, but some products offered on their website are even animal friendly and earth friendly. Seems like an easy transition to those who have access to it.
Hello ;o)
Hi, what a fantastic giveaway. Thank you for the opportunity to enter. SKOON is an amazing brand

Hi Angie,
I loved reading your post, mainly because I am currently battling with very dry skin. I have changed moisturises and increased application of creams, but for some reason this winter has left my face dryer than an overcooked powderey meringue and gin&tonic combo. After reading your review, I’d really one love to try Skoons, and I hope that it might just be my rain in the desert drought that is my face.
Thanks for the post xx
This is very exciting, it’s literally 2 of my favourite brands ?
Hello 🙂 Thank you for the giveaway
This post makes me want to BUY ALL THE SKOON PRODUCTS! Also… Hi! ??
Hi! My winter skin care regime is the following – garnier micellar water to get rid of makeup and then I go in with Skin Creamery’s gel to milk cleanser. I like to mask sometimes, so it’s usually Skin Creamer’s exfoliating powder mixed with water, followed by Skoon’s Ruby Marine. When I’m not masking, I’ll use an oil like Balm Balm’s rosehip oil as a moisturiser. I’m dying to try Skoon’s exfoliator!!
Hi!

Hi!
Hi 🙂
Dear Lucky Pony,
Firstly, this blog is amazing and I’m so glad I have come across it. All the tips and the hot chocolate cake recipe – looks YUM! Anyway, I have been wanting to try out SKOON skincare for awhile now as I’ve read up all about them and what they stand for (LOVE) but alas, I am still a student and I won’t go into details there! I would love to try the Ruby Marine overnight mask as well as the Phyto Red Beauty Aid Cream for sensitive and dry skin. I get a few little dry areas (especially when I am stressed – which I try very hard not to be – obvs). Anyway, maybe I will be blessed, or someone else! Have a brilliant week either way.
Hi! Love the name Skoon for local product! Let’s get winning Skoonie! I would love to try some products. #fresh&local

Hi, how you doing???
?
All those products sound amazing. I love that Skoon is cruelty free and endorsed by Beauty without Cruelty.
My skin gets super dry over winter, I have just bought a hydrating mask from Avene so I’m hoping it helps. I also use an enzyme exfoliator as it’s not as harsh on the skin.
Hey! Love your blog!
